Bat Mitzvah Card Album

My niece just had her Bat Mitzvah and I thought she should have a place to store all her cards and memorabilia.




















So I had my Mom send me some photos from the day and I went to town decorating and customizing the outside of The Card Album.
















I cut up the invitation reusing it for the cover title.
















So not only is The Card Album a great place to store cards, it can hold all sorts of things like the program from the event, the embossed napkins and things. The pocket in the back is perfect for little bits that don't have a fold that slides into the cord binding system.

My first Decorated Christmas Card Card Album for 2009 using the Cricut Die Cutter

I decorated my first Card Album for my 2009 Christmas cards!
I know your thinking a bit early? No never too early to craft for the holidays, they sneak up on you like you wouldn't believe!















It is really hard to shoot really shiny metallic hence the two shots.














I know it's hard to see but on the ribbon I die cut "2009 cards" out of shiny gold metallic sticky back vinyl on my Cricut die cutter. I wrapped my Card Album like a present. I put the bow on the spine so it would look pretty on the shelf amongst my books.















Here you can see the "9".
